Holding you close as we slowly dance
across a floor full of invisible people
listening to each others heartbeats
and praying for time to stop
so this moment could last forever.
You hold me tighter as we spin around
knowing that this is the end,
tonight is the last time we'll be together
before you walk away for good,
this is our last dance.
Feeling the music flow through us
but it doesn't drown the emotion
or the pain welling up inside
as we try to enjoy our time
and not focus on the future.
The lights start to dim
with the sparkle of silver everywhere,
watching it flit across your face
I smile and hide the tears
at the love reflecting in your eyes.
You hold me tighter as we spin around
knowing that this is the end,
tonight is the last time we'll be together
before you walk away for good,
this is our last dance.
As the music starts to slow
we look in each others eyes
knowing it's time to let go,
time to be strong,
time for you to break my heart.
Standing in the middle of the floor
the room gets quiet around us,
you pull me closer and hold me tight
and I silently pray you don't walk away
but stay by my side like this.
You kiss my cheek softly
then kiss my lips tenderly,
I see you blinking back the tears
that you refuse to let control you
as mine spill down my cheeks.
You take a step away from me
never looking away from my eyes
then taking a breath you turn away
and start taking the path you've chosen,
the one that I'm not on.
You disappear into the darkness
and as the space between us starts to stretch
I hear you whisper the words I've longed to hear,
a sweet and tender "I love you"
then you walk out of my life.
Standing in the glittering lights
I watch my dreams walk away
and my heart crumbs at my feet,
this forever to be the day
you took my life away.
